My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in water bowls and is fully described and explained in the specification and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which v Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improveddevice; Fig. 2 is a similar view partly 1 in longitudinal section; Fig. 3 is the rear'elevation of the'bowl removed and Fig -itis a section on the'line 4 of Fig. 2. t

Referring to drawings, 5 is a water supply pipe carrying valve-containingmember (5 which is secured against rotation thereon by the means described in my application filed on even date herewith and allowed Serial .No; 3041, 194. 7 is the valve stem and 8' is the pivoted valve-operating member which lies withinthe bowl andvis adapted to cause the'entrance of water to the bowl when the member is depressed. 9 is the bowl provided at its upper edge with extensions 10 which embrace the. valve-containing member 6 and have lugs 11 at their upper lower end of the'bowl. in position, said extension {having also a downwardly project- .ing lip overlying the freeend of the latchfor the purpose set forth.

' 3. In combination a vertical .valve-conjtaining'member, a pivoted valve-operating valve-containin member. This arrangement securely xes the upper edge ofthe bowl in position.

Similarly to secure the lower part of the bowl in proper position the bowl is provided with a latch l3,pivoted between ears 14': on the bowl andprovided at its rear end with a hook 15 and at its forwardend being held down by spring 16. 17 is an arm carried by the lower end of the valve-containing member and provided with a" lip 18 with which the book 15 engages and'at its rear with adownwardly turned ear 19 shielding the lower end ofthe latch toprevent its ac- The present device is such thatthe bowl can readily be removed and replaced when desired.
